Oh! If only I still had a “little” girl I would so be doing this tutorial! There are lots of darling onesies out there that they grow out of quickly! Extend their life (and their cuteness) by making them into a dress!

Sometimes the clothes we have just need a little “umph” or help. This dress in her closet from the nineties totally gets brought into trend with a little shave here and there from the sewing machine! Love that it’s knit too and that makes it comfy to wear!

Is there a team that you root for? I’m a proud University of of Washington Husky, and I’d love to have a dress to show my loyalty. These game day dresses are darling, and you can make one in a halter or tube top style. It’s all about adding jersey knit to the bottom. Learn more below!

I must admit, every time I go to the Goodwill it looks as though a truck of men’s shirts just arrived – when in fact, there are just that many there ALL the time. Don’t be afraid to pick one up and turn it into a dress! It’s not as hard as it looks. The dress that Carly made looks challenging, but if you read through the instructions and follow them to a tee, you’ll be good to go. Does anyone else love the ruffle on the front of her dress as much as I do?

Sarah at Welcome to the Good Life was rummaging around in her mother’s closet and found a pleated skirt. And the genius part is Sarah turned it into an amazing dress based on a $740 one dress she loved from — Burberry!!

AND, she won a design contest at Shabby Apple for this idea. Congratulations Sarah!!

We are loving maxi dresses right now – and who doesn’t? They are so comfortable! So comfortable, in fact, that you can make them out of t-shirts. That is exactly what Meg did, and the result is perfectly striped and fun for summer. Get the full tutorial so that you can make your own at her blog.
